SAINT LEO, Fla. – Three male
student-athletes earned College Sports Information Directors of
America (CoSIDA) Academic All-District Men’s At-Large First
Team honors, it was announced Saturday. Men’s Golfer Nick
Brothers, Men’s Lacrosse player Matt Obermeyer, and
Men’s Tennis player Matt Nicholson-Lewis each earned the
distinct accolade for the first time in their careers.

Brothers, a Crystal River, Fla. native, led the Lions this
season by posting nearly an even-par scoring average (72.7) across
25 rounds played. During this season he managed a share of
the top spot at the Indian Bayou Classic in the fall and posted a
low-round of 68 at the Warner Invitational earlier this
spring. Totaling his accomplishments, the junior registered
five top-five finishes and six top-10 results in nine events held
this year. He was rewarded with an All-Sunshine State Conference
Second Team nod, as well as an NCAA South Region Tournament
appearance.

Academically, Brothers shined as he amassed a 3.40
grade-point-average, while working towards his degree in
Education.

Brothers was joined by a pair of Saint Leo underclassmen as the
sophomore duo of Obermeyer and Nicholson-Lewis posted two of the
highest GPA’s on the team.

Obermeyer, an attackman for men’s lacrosse team, racked up
a team-high 38 goals, and added six assists for 44 points en route
to 2012 First Team All-Deep South Conference honors. The
Winter Springs, Fla. native also collected 19 ground balls and five
caused turnovers.

In the classroom, Obermeyer was just as stellar as he punctuated
his academic year with a 3.62 grade-point-average while aiming for
his degree in Marketing.

Nicholson-Lewis, a men’s tennis standout, compiled 31 wins
during the season, including 15 singles matches. Seeing time at
each of the first three slots, the Cambridge, England native did
the majority of his damage at No.2 singles where he posted nine
wins. Ranked in the top-35 all season, Nicholson-Lewis also
gathered 16 wins with his top flight doubles partner Victor
Lozier.

His outstanding numbers saw him earn All-SSC First Team Doubles
honors, as well as All-SSC Second Team Singles.

His real highlight, however, came while hitting the books as he
finished the academic year with an outstanding 3.73
grade-point-average, the fourth-highest on the 10-person honoree
list. He is currently working towards his degree in Sports
Business.

All-America voting will begin on Tuesday, May 22.
